Mojo Monday Sketch 86

Welcome to another Mojo Monday morning! In an earlier post, I used the Wide Oval Punch to create a vase for this card. Today I fashioned a vase with the same punch by "subtracting" from the card stock. Here's today's Mojo Monday Sketch 86 (MOJO86)

Using Stampin' Up!'s Wide Oval and Horizontal Slot Punch I cropped out my vase outline. TIP: To produce the wider "lip" at the top of the vase, the slot punch was punched twice, moving slightly left and right.

I stamped another design from Pocket Silhouettes in Chocolate Chip Craft Ink on Very Vanilla twice. TIP: One of the advantages of Stampin' Up!'s Craft Ink (as opposed to Classic Ink, which I use for most purposes) is that it's stickier so you can emboss it. I sprinkled Clear Embossing Powder over all three images and heat embossed for a raised and shiny finish.

My vase outline was adhered over the center image using Stampin' Dimensionals. Vintage Brads doll up the corners.

To produce a distressed edge on the side images, I used a Cutter Kit. Excellent results and saves my fingernails.

The Very Vanilla card base is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". It's topped (from top to bottom) with Really Rust Textured card stock, a strip of Textured Chocolate Chip, Good Morning Sunshine Designer Series Paper and a sweet eyelet border in Really Rust.

The sentiment is from Chit Chat Rub-Ons. TIP: This set of rub-ons comes with one sheet each of Chocolate Chip and Whisper White. Just about every occasion is addressed and they are simple to align and transfer.

HOT TIP: Hoping to find samples or a past Stampin' Pretty post about a particular embellishment or stamp set? How about a favorite Designer Paper? Look for "Search Blog" on my left side bar and type your term in the text box. Voil?!

wow great card, I love this stamp set. I am going to start trying out these sketches, I think they are a great way to get the creative juices going without having to case someone elses card. Thanks for the inspiration mary!! Say hi to Mike – he is my husbands inspiration!! lol
